Abandoned vehicle, 10th September
This vehicle does not belong to any of the residence and has been left here for over 6 weeks now, it is parked in a restricted parking area and is causing traffic issues during the day, as the area has a large volume of heavy goods turning from the work site opposite. There is a sign saying broken due to key issues, but this has been here far to long now and can only assume it’s abandoned, there are also local residents that park here and cannot at the moment.

Massive amounts of mud and dirt, 4th March
The situation on Pennine Road is a disgrace, mud, dirt and dust are being left on the road and pavements by trucks passing (mostly travelling above the 20mph speed limit!) from/to the nearby quarry. This is causing a safety issue as the road is slippy and there are clumps of clay/mud scattered along the road. There is also the health issue of residents breathing in the dust from these deposits. The state of mine and other residents' vehicles is unbelievable, they are covered in debris from the trucks which is causing problems, not only to the paintwork but also to the mechanics of the vehicle as the engine, brakes etc. are being clogged up by the thick dust. It is pointless and expensive to have the vehicles cleaned as as soon as they are cleaned, they are filthy again within minutes. I want to know who will pay and or come to clean my car on a (very!!) regular basis?

Road lined with mud and clay, 2nd March
The wheel wash at the quarry isn’t working. This is causing pennine road and the surrounding area, also the town centre and Burnley road being caked in mud and clay. This is making it hazardous to drive on, and is making cars including my own filthy. The clay and mud is hindering brakes on vehicles.

Dirt/Mud/clay/stones being left from Pennine Road over Burnley road up to Burnley, 2nd March
The quarry (Tong Lane Quarry) has an agreement with LCC. There are over 30 wagons per day using these roads and this is the mess residents have to put up. People as far as Burnley Road Bacup are also complaining. It appears that the wheel wash may not be working again. The road sweeper just spreads it further afield.

Continuous littering issue along with dog mess, 13th February
For the past few weeks I have been working on this street and have purchased a property on there. I am disgusted with the extent of littering along this street and frequent dog mess. I think it stems from takeaway and food outlets. Surely business owners have an interest and should take some pride by clearing up or encouraging their clientele to not drop litter. It is an absolute disgrace.

Becoming dangerous, 19th February
In between Abbey St and Russell St there has been rubbish dumped repeatedly. Mostly from the houses on Russell St, though they deny it, letters are in the rubbish with names and addresses on. They continue to give abuse and cause trouble in the area. I was walking up Abbey st to collect my autistic child from school and myself amd a delivery driver had to move rubbish that had spilled onto our street from the flytipping just so I could safely walk my son down my own front St. Its a breeding ground for rodents too.

Loose Grid on Helmshore Road bottom of park street, 23rd June
I complained about the grid and the noise from it 2 weeks ago since then, men came out and filled in a hole by the grid. This has not stopped the noise from it every time a car goes over it I have been awake now since 4.30 am when the morning traffic started going past - I am now getting little sleep due to the noise and other residents some of who are seriously ill along with my 90-year-old mother are suffering in the same way. Please could you look at fixing the grid again urgently?

Parking on a bend + unnecessary obstruction of the road, 17th March
During school hours of 15:00-15:40 drivers park on the bend of this road when coming from New Line, this causes an unnecessary obstruction of the road to drivers. This also causes a danger to all road users as they're unable to safely navigate this section of road due to the obstructions, frequently having to straddle the white lines in order to tackle a blind left hand bend when view obstructed by parked vehicles. This continues to be a prevelent issue that appears to only be getting worse.
